Amazing flavor! I used coconut sugar in place of the brown sugar. The whole family loved :)

I let my chicken legs marinade for 5 hours. They were flavourful, juicy and tender. I love the spicyness of the chicken its a nice surprise. I'd certainly make this tasty dish again. It was very easy to make.

My wife gave this recipe the ultimate compliment: "We could serve this to company any time!" No adaptations yet; this is a good base to start from.
